Change the Equation:

Vital Signs - Missouri

Recently the national STEM group, Change the Equation, developed a 50 state report and data dashboard on STEM education. This effort highlights key indicators on student performance, teacher preparation, state standards and transition from high school to college or career. Missouri’s data, and all 50 states, can be found at the Change the Equation website.

“Missouri is raising the bar. The state has joined 44 others in adopting rigorous math standards for K–12—the Common Core State Standards—and it is working with other states to create robust tests aligned to those standards. These are promising developments, but to succeed amid profound practical, political and financial challenges, the state has to maintain its resolve.”
